Ukrainian drone operators are now getting real-time data straight from US commercial satellites. Target detection and strike time cut by 90%. Images from Vantor reach the front in 15 minutes, WSJ reports.

Putin is in trouble. This is precisely the wrong moment to offer him a way out.

Keep calm and stay the course. Our strategy is working.

To those concerned about the risks posed by a losing aggressor, remember: aggression succeeding would be far more dangerous.

The last thing Europe should do is self-deter.

@moondragon_wkad Latvia’s negligence on construction of their portion is a huge national security risk for both Estonia and Latvia. The railway is being built not only for trade and public transportation needs but also to support the Baltics in case of a Russian attack.

My message to the Estonian Rescue Board today:

Never before has 🇪🇪 entered a period of profound international change from such a strong position. But in times like these, resting on our laurels is not stability — it is decline.

And decline is not a path we’ll accept.

[William S Parsley 🇺🇸🇪🇪 @parsleyII]

The is no place for hate in Estonia.

[Estonian MFA 🇪🇪 | 🌻 #StandWithUkraine @MFAestonia]

Today marks the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia.

The rainbow flag 🏳️‍🌈 flying on our foreign missions is a reminder that everyone deserves respect, safety and equal opportunities, no matter whom they love or how they define themselves.

Discrimination, bullying and violence have no place in our society.

As a member of the @UN_HRC, Estonia 🇪🇪 stands for equal rights for all, both at home and abroad.

"Every time somebody calls for immediate peace without mentioning Russian withdrawal, what they are really asking is whether Ukraine should accept occupation..

I see this war ending with Russia going back to Russia."

- Kaja Kallas

I see it the same way...🤷‍♀️

[Michael Weiss @michaeldweiss]

Good. That’ll piss off all the right people.

Meanwhile in Estonia…

[Meanwhile in Ukraine @MeanwhileInUA]

Europe keeps asking how much Ukraine needs help. Stubb asked the question that changes everything.
ㅤ
Finland’s President Alexander Stubb said he has always supported Ukraine’s EU and NATO membership. But his strongest point was bigger than membership: he said no military in Europe — or even the United States — can conduct modern warfare the way Ukraine is doing it now.
ㅤ
His message was simple: Europe should stop seeing Ukraine only as a country that needs protection and start asking what Europe needs to learn from Ukraine.
ㅤ
Ukraine is not waiting outside Europe’s security system. Ukraine is already teaching it how to survive.

The European Union has warned Israel that it is ready to impose sanctions on those aiding and abetting the trade of Ukrainian grain stolen by Russia in the occupied territories, after a new ship loaded with the cereal arrived in the port of Haifa.

[Vatnik Soup @P_Kallioniemi]

EU approved a €90 billion loan for Ukraine, Hungary lifted its veto 🇺🇦🇪🇺

EU diplomats also approved the 20th package of sanctions against Russia, Hungary now supports both packages of measures!

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

KALLAS: Russia keeps attacking other countries. How many frozen conflicts surround Russia? In the last 100 years, Russia attacked at least 19 countries, some of them multiple times. None of these countries ever attacked Russia.

We must ensure that Russia no longer constitutes a threat to its neighboring countries. And we must create a situation in which Russia is compelled to enter into genuine negotiations.

They are only pretending to negotiate now because they are waiting for Americans to implement so-called Alaska agreement. That means giving Russia entire Donbas and all their maximum demands.

- Kaja Kallas:

"Washington is not trying to manage Europe. It is trying to dissolve it.
They do not like the European Union,..
The tactics,resemble those used by the EU's adversaries..

The answer is not bilateral deals with Trump. It is unity. Because when Europe stands together, it is an equal power. And that is exactly what Washington cannot stand."

The only way a Republican can lose the governor's race in Ohio is to have a candidate that is so despicable not even Ohion's will vote for. Ramaswamy check's that box.

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

Don’t vote for people behaving like Ramaswamy.

Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has just called to congratulate us on our victory.

🇪🇪 Reading skills are among the highest in the world. I find it amusing that some shade is being thrown at older people over 45 for being too impatient to finish reading technical text.

@kallemets @markomihkelson This was expected but luckily the Hungarian people know that Orban is pulling out every dirty trick to try and win the election. I doubt an extremely unlikable Vance will sway Hungarian voters minds.
